About this position

This PhD scholarship project, “Playful acoustics: The impact of space on expression, skill and enjoyment of music learners,” investigates how the acoustic and spatial characteristics of learning environments shape musical development.

Based within the Sound Futures doctoral network, the research connects the psychology of music with acoustics, music education and sustainable sound. The doctoral researcher will explore how different spaces influence learners’ musical expression, the development of performance skills and their enjoyment of music-making.

The project is associated with Harmony Works and involves co-supervision by Renee Timmers, Professor of Psychology of Music at the University of Sheffield, and Ning Ma. It offers an interdisciplinary research environment spanning music learning, learner experience, spatial sound and the design of more supportive environments for musical activity.

The project is one of two music-related PhD scholarships advertised through the Sound Futures doctoral network.
